dying of the light.

dying of the light.
_______________________________________
Be not afraid ( for I am the darkness ) the black sheet
Upon nightfall that wrap's around your soul

Take rest within my care
painting your heart with stars of shining light

Capturing those dreams vulnerable in flight

placing kisses upon those eyes closed tight

No weep nor fear
I am the darkness ( I am here ) the gentle night

No mares' run free within my sight

Travel now to the land of sleep

beyond the sorrow's for angels weep

No safer secret has daylight Kept

The frightened hours those angels wept

before the gentle night

once becoming accustom
To the dying of the light.
